From Broome to Geraldton (WA)

The Western Australia coast from Broome to Geraldton does some nice spots to take a look at, the funny thing is the distances between them are huge (min. 600 km). So you drive a day, day a half from place to place.

After Broome, first spot was Karijina NP, that is several gorges with plenty of water in the midle of an arid landscape. Herewith some pictures of Karijini.

One of the gorges with the most nice pools.

Some of hte gorge are really narrow so you can go though climbing between the walls. In the picture a trio of brave travelers in the spiderwalk.
Nice gorge ands gorgeus pool. The variety of colours and shapes of the walls is completly diferent to any canyon I've ever been.

In Karijini I met a couple of girls from Belgium (Sandra and Claire) looking for climb the highest mountain fropm the site so we hike Mt. Bruce in a beatiful morning and enjoyed the wildflowers fields of WA.

After Karijini, Day and a half driving to Ningaloo reef. Great place to visit!! It is like the great barrier but you can swim from the beach to the reef (easy!). I saw same wildlife that in Cairns, it is sharks, turtles, rays, hips of diferents fishes,...



On my way to Sharks bay, stopped to take a look to the blowholes, spectacular site with a wild sea.
This is the way to nalu, a surf, windsurf site, only for Pros, King waves are not a joke (some people dies in these places)

Sharks bay was the next stop looking for sea it's famous Monkey Mia spot and it's friendly dolphins.

There are, of course, plenty of sharks from the shy neurvous shark to the dangerous tiger shark. Great to see them from land. In the picture a lemon shark.


I really enjoyed the time with the dolphins, they look at you in a way that reminds some kind of human inteligence... I was really impressed.


Kalbarri NP is a combination of spectacular cliffs with some gorge with semisalt water.

The shape of the rocks arond the canyons allows you to take pictures like that.

HUGE cliffs in the west coast, can you see the car at the top?

Geraldton is the first real city you find when you drive south but it's too a paradise for the lovers of the wind and waves (windsurfing and kitesurfing), so I planned to stay some days but there are gods vibs in this city so I probably stay a bit more, we'll see...

Relaxing sunset after an active day (surfing in the morning, widsurfing in the afternoon) and to finish a " seafood barbie" for dinner made yesterday a good time.
